8 Organizational Support Hospital Leadership 56% of hospitals designated a senior executive to lead SFH 39% had SFH goals in strategic plan 30% had explicit commitment at level of board of directors Supporting Human Resources Development 55% had geriatrics content in orientation or education for staff frailty focused education to all staff developing geriatrics champions HR policies that encourage skills development in geriatrics Service Planning Structures solicit input from community and health system partners 8

9 Processes of Care Clinical Protocols/Monitoring most common falls, pressure ulcers, restraint use, pain management least common management of behaviours, sleep, functional decline, hydration/nutrition functional decline an emerging priority Interprofessional Practice in the Hospital geriatric assessment teams, leveraging volunteers Inter-organizational Collaboration for Transitions in Care post D/C follow-up care partnerships for transitional care 9

10 Emotional and Behavioural Environment Patient Centred Care Designed with Seniors in Mind 28% of hospitals age specific measures in satisfaction or quality improvement initiatives Staff for way finding, personal menu assistance Supporting Communication and Patient Involvement in Care hearing amplifiers, translation services team rounds at the bedside Early goal setting discussions discharge planning information packages 10

11 Ethics in Clinical Care and Research Access to a Clinical Ethicist for Complex Situations 83% of hospitals have access to a bioethicist regular learning opportunities (case studies, lunch and learns) Procedures for Capacity and Consent Issues internal processes involving appropriate clinical staff consultation with external bodies Procedures for Advance Directives 78% of hospitals have formal policies/procedures, but many are limited in scope to resuscitation orders resources provided to patients, families and care team to guide advance care directives 11

12 Physical Environment 34% of hospitals have performed SFH audits to prioritize improvements to physical spaces overall reliance on AODA and building code standards in physical planning involvement of clinical staff and older adults in physical environment planning to inform design team 12

13 Provincial SFH Action Priorities Functional Decline Implement interprofessional early mobilization protocols across hospital departments to optimize physical function Delirium Implement interprofessional delirium screening, prevention, and management protocols across hospital departments to optimize cognitive function Transitions In Care Implement practices and developing partnerships that promote interorganizational collaboration with community and post-acute services 13

25 ...rest in bed is anatomically, physiologically and psychologically unsound. Look at a patient lying long in bed. What a pathetic picture he makes! The blood clotting in his veins, the lime draining from his bones, the scybala stacking up in his colon, the flesh rotting from his seat, the urine leaking from his distended bladder and the spirit evaporating from his soul.
